We are prone to think now, because
the elm, the oak, the chestnut and the
hickory wave in the glad sunlight, that
the day will never come when wood
will be much sought after and our
woodsheds mockery. But that time
may come before we are prepared for
it. So, too, we may flatter ourselves
that the day is far distant when help
will be so scarce that we can not get
President easily at the salary we now
pay; but what do we do to make the
life of President enjoyable? What
home influences do we throw about him
to make his lot more cheerful?

Caught in a Tight Place.

There recently happened in Boston,
says the Transcript, q very distress
ing incident, in which a professional
gentleman, who had occasion to visit
a lady who was subject to alteration
of mind, narrowly escaped participate
ing in tragedy OF the most shocking
kind. The lady had, in what was evi-
IDENTIFY one OF her alterations, request
ed him to accompany her to another
part of the house, and he deemed it
altogether best to follow. Suddenly
he found that she had led him out up
on the roof OF the house. Once there,
she calmly insisted upon leaping to the
ground, and taking him with her. He
struggled to save himself and her, and
as her frenzy gave her'unusual strength.
the gentleman found his task very
hard one. When at last he succeeded
in getting her off the roof and into q
place of safety, he was rather more
dead than alive, so great was his ex-
haustion and excitement. Perhaps
he might have saved himself the strain
if he had exhibited the presence of
mind that was once shown by afriend
Of the mad English poet, Nathaniel
Lee, who was confined in Bedlam. The
friend visited him there, and found
him apparently restored to reason.
Lee showed him the "institution,"
and finally led him out on the root
Then the poet seized him by the arm,
and quietly but firmly remarked!
"Come, let us immortalize ourselves
by leaping off this roof" He meant
it, and was strong enough to carry
the other with him. By all means let
US immortalize ourselves" said the
friend; "but any fool could Jump down;
that would MT help us any. Let S go
down to the ground and jump up.
That would make us famous!" The
maniac was taken with the idea, and
they went down; but Lee never got up
to the roof again.

Emigrating West.

The revival ofltrade has led to a SUBJ
stantial increase in the proportions Of
emigration from Europe. So pro-
nounced is this that nearly all the
Atlantic lines have issued notices to
their agents to stop booking for the
present. A special feature OF this po-
sition is that numbers of mechanics are
going out, especially bricklayers, plas-
terers and masons from Scotland,
Wales and the Northern districts OF
England in response to advices from
the other side that good openings are
now presenting to such craftsmen.
The general prospects Of the em1gra-
tion trade are equally brisk, the Ger
man lines are understood to be al
ready fully booked and q considerable
accession to the numbers OF Germans
passing through Liverpool is to be ex-
pected. Swedes and Norweigans are
fully to the fore. Altogether the emf
grafton trade of the current season is
more brisk than at any time during
the previous seven years and pros
poets point to along period OF activity.

Three WronIxl, Guessos.

y rederick Smith, Who lived il Ran
dolph county, n. q, during the Waf
OF the Rev Volution, had 8 difficult part
to play. He was Indifferent to the
kings claims, and he cared little for
the cause Of the colonies. If people
wished to be patriots and fight the
British troops, Smith was willing,
provided he was not disturbed in his
log-cabin, which was filled With .'olive
plants in the form Of little Smiths. 1
Smith, being g quiet man, with lit.
tie shrewdness, and no convictions,
was willing to side with those in whose
company he found himself, whether
Wing or Tory. But his plastic nature
was the occasion Of fseveral difficulties.
Small parties Of Wings would assume
the costume or badges Of Tories, and
go about the country, picking up
reticent friends Of King George. One
day q party of Wings, disguised as
Tories, came upon Smith. Not know
ing him, they asked him the usual
question, "Whom are you for?'' ,.
Smith answered, II am for the king,
God bless him!"
.'Are your replied the leader;
''then We'll hang you!'' and in min
ute or two Smith was dangling from
the limb of tree.
AS they did not desire to push mat.
ters too far, they soon cut him down
and let him 60, with the warning to
change his politics. Not long after q
parry of Tories, disguised as Wings,
ranging in the neighborhood, asked
him again, 'Whom are you for?"
"I'm for: the Colonies and Independ.
ence!" exclaimed Smith.
"Hang the rebel up!" exclaimed the
leader
Smith went up, hung as long as he
could without suffocat1ng, was lower
ed to the ground, and dismissed with
the injunction to come out for King
George, or he would certainly hang
until dead the next time.
The months passed, and the wal
was almost finished, when Smith was
suddenly surprised by a party OF
armed men.
AOIu dIe you 1Oi! SuOuLeu Lue
leader.
Poor Smith was in q fix. He had
answered that question twice before,
and each time the question choked
HIM: A happy thought struck him.
"Pm for the DEVIL" said he, with q
chuckle.
"Are you? Then the sooner we send
you to your master the better!" re-
piled the leader.
A grapevine was putaround Smiths
neck; one end was thrown over the
limb OF a tree; a dozen men pulled on
that end, and Smith went up. The
party, save one, rode away. leaving
Smith dancing in air.
That one, making an excuse, stayed
behind and cut Smith down before he
had expired.
